Progression & Pathways

Women's rugby is growing, but there are still gaps in the pathway from Rip Rugby to Junior Tackle and then to Senior Tackle.

In 2026, we are running a rugby program that provides a progressive path for girls looking to take on tackle rugby and reach higher levels. It aims to ensure girls can participate for as long as they wish and at the level they choose.

What does this program look like?

We have plans, and this will be the page to come back to for the latest updates on what we are up to.

I do have more information, but I've changed my mind about how I want to present it to you, so I am busy working on that and hope to have it up this side of Christmas.

When registration opens, this will be complete, showing our pathway and events, and we will promote it to all female players. 

Women's rugby is growing in participation, skill, and visibility, but there are still gaps in the pathways for girls to start and stay in the sport.

Often, girls start playing the game in their teenage years, and this can be a big step to take on a contact sport and continue with it.

Today, the number of girls playing means that teams are limited. Other sports can have five grades between the ages of 13 and 18. Girls rugby has two.

When it comes to leaving school and going to clubs, it's common that the only option is the open women's team, and that can be a big step up.

“Build a clear pathway and progression for girls rugby.”
